I believe the line "I see a few more dates have opened up for ceremonies" would have given it away. These are the upcoming oath ceremonies in which people on the tracking spreadsheet have not been scheduled for.
Been DM since Feb. 16th - seems like no one has received a test invite since Feb. 13th from Calgary.
I see a few more dates have opened up for ceremonies - hopefully we start seeing some test invites soon!

My wife had the same thing happen - test on Feb. 8th, during interview the officer needed to check with CBSA to cross-reference stamps (she is American, so roughly 30 trips including a lot of day trips). Took about ~6 business days to change to DM.

There were 2 discrepancies with passport stamps - one was we missed the PR flagpole run (how do you miss that!) and the other was a customs stamp (not CBSA) when we cleared our goods into Canada at the...

Hi fellow Calgary applicants.
For those who have received test invites, did they come via email, mail, both? ECAS is showing Feb. 8th, so far nothing via email or postal mail.
Will call in a week or two if we don't see anything.
My uneducated guess is they are artificially throttling with the holidays coming up. We're in the same boat - AOR on Nov. 17th, nothing since.
More than likely we'll see a mass update when they start intake again.
